If you plan to take your pushchair on outdoor walks you should consider models that have air-filled tires (also known by the name pneumatic). They are able to be used on rough terrain and come with a a front wheel that can lock to provide greater stability.
What is a three-wheeler buggy?
Whether you're going off road or around town, a 3-wheeler offers greater maneuverability. They are able to turn at any time and are easy to maneuver and pass the rigorous tests of stability. A fabric sling sits comfortably inside the frame instead of sitting over it like modular seats - this design provides lower center of gravity for easier pushing and lighter curb pops (you don't need to put any effort or weight to push your buggy over the curb). three wheel pushchair (r), has a world-first sport verso(tm) that is a 3-wheeled inline chassis. It can be used as a parent-facing infant carrier or a toddler ride-onboard.
Are you thinking of going "off-road"?
For those who like to be adventurous and go off the beaten path, it's important that your buggy can cope with rough terrain. You'll need a reliable suspension system to absorb bumps and large wheels that have air-filled tyres that provide excellent grip on rough surfaces. A lockable wheel on the front is also an excellent feature for stability when jogging on rough surfaces.
MFM reviewer Kath really put this fun-loving buggy to the test by driving it over rough grass, cobbles and dirt tracks with her infant and 3 year old. She also she said "it did everything without difficulty and was even enjoyable to jog with. The rear wheels are 16 inches and the lockable'swivel' front wheels offer great stability when working roadsides or uneven surfaces, and the tyres have built-in suspension for smooth riding."
Sport verso is a world first. It's a fantastic single buggy, but it can easily be adapted to accommodate two (or more!) If your family grows, you can still use the same buggy. The sling seats made of fabric are placed snugly inside the frame at the perfect height to distribute weight evenly. This enables more ease of pushing and a less hefty curb-pop.
Do you want to 'do some sightseeing'?
A 3 wheel buggy has a single wheel at the front and two wheels in the rear. The model you choose will determine the wheel is free to rotate or it can be locked so that the buggy is able to move in straight lines. They are simple to drive and maneuver, and usually have tyres with air filled and suspension to provide comfortable riding. They are ideal for everyday use in cities and are able to handle kerb-popping as well as going off road.
As with any buggy, it is essential to drive responsibly and not get distracted by a mobile phone, tablet or other device. Avoid driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs as this can affect your judgment and reaction time. Be sure to check the footprint of your buggy once it is folded in order to ensure that it will fit inside your vehicle.
If you are looking for a buggy that can take you from the parks to the shops, then you should choose one with a large shopping basket, a sturdy brake pedal, and a huge sun canopy (50+ inches in diameter) with an extendable pole. MFM reviewer Kath particularly liked the sling seat made of fabric that includes an automatic lie flat mattress for infants. She also felt that the seating was placed perfectly within the frame for an even weight distribution. However, she it was noted that the triangular frame is not the storage capacity of a 4 wheeler.
Do you want to go to the park'
This 3-wheeler is ideal for urban adventures too, thanks to its incredible maneuverability. MFM reviewer Kath put it to the test and discovered it could navigate grass, cobbles and bumpy pavements easily. It also did well with the kerb poppings around town, since the fabric sling seat sits perfectly inside the frame at just the right height for the best weight distribution to effortlessly push and lift it over them.
The buggy can also be used for jogging, as it has locking swivel wheels that can be locked on the front and a'snug & stretch' tyre that gives smooth riding. The only downside with the large wheels is it isn't easy to fold down into smaller spaces. Luckily it has some pretty impressive storage options to make up for this! The basket is huge and a rear zip up pocket.
